The Note

I decided to take a bath first. I just didnt have it in me to unpack my small bag just yet i needed to relax abit first. Today had not been the fun filled friend adventure i had envisaged. I was really excited about spending the day with friends for the first time in my life. Birthdays were not happy for me but this was the start of a new way of celebrating my day. I was going to go on all the rides at the fairground and eat so much cotton candy I would feel sick but now as always I was alone. I cant keep dwelling on what ifs though. The bathroom was huge and I mean bigger than my whole bedroom at home. I admit I had the smallest room there but still this bathroom was huge. My bedroom was big enough for a single bed, a nightstand, a wardrobe and a small desk in the corner. The walls were white and i wasnt allowed pictures or posters as it wasnt really my room but a room in there house as i was told daily as to not forget. My "mother" always said i didn't need a big room or things as i wasn't going to end up a spoilt brat. I definitely was not spoilt. I had the same pillow and duvet for the best part of 10 years. So yeah the bathroom was that big I could fit my bedroom in here 3 times over. It had a sunken bath that looked like a pool and gold ornate taps. The bath had a step down into it and it could easily fit 2 or maybe more people in it. I filled the bath with water just cool enough to get in. I didn't want to add burns to the list of things I didn't need to happen today. There was bubble bath, shampoo and conditioner on a gold plate sat next to the bath. It smelled divine. The room was decorated with gold accents just like the bedroom was. The towels were so soft and a white dressing gown was hung on the door with the Inns name embroidered into it in gold, just like the room was decorated. It was honestly the most beautiful bathroom I had ever seen even on movies they couldn't compare to this. I stayed in the bath until the water went cold and as I got out there was a knock on the door. "Give me 2 minutes please im just getting dressed" i shouted as I wrapped myself in the dressing gown that was so fluffy it felt like i had wrapped myself in a cloud. They really knew how to make someone feel special here thats for sure. As I rushed to open the door I noticed an envelope slipped under it on the floor just inces from the c***k at the bottom making me think it had been pushed through for me to find. I bent down to pick it up before I opened the door. No one was there. Hmmm strange I thought to myself. I slowly and carefully opened the envelope. *Miss Bella you are invited to dinner at Cresent Moon Lodge this evening at 5pm. Please dress formal. Dinner and drinks will be served. A car will be sent to collect you at 4.45pm. Please make sure you are ready and waiting* I stared at the invitation in my hand. It was on a beautiful blue card with gold corners and was hand written. It smelled faintly of some kind of musky scent. The scent felt familiar to me almost like someone or something i had smelled before. Im seriously not sure what is going on today I thought to myself. The only person who knew I was here was Claude. Did he invite me? I must remember to ask him later. I sat by the windows looking out at the view of the surrounding forests and I tried to reach out to the voice again. "Um excuse me but what is going on? No reply. "Great i listened to myself apparently" i said to myself out loud. I sat there for what felt like forever staring out at the beautiful scene infront of me but my eyes grew heavy and I finally made my way to the bed. I laid down and let sleep take me. Why is it so bright I thought to myself as I looked around the forest surrounding me. Hang on i swear I was in bed a minute ago. I was in a lush green clearing. I could see trees and colourful wild flowers dancing in the breeze. The sky seemed to have a purple haze to it only making it seem brighter. I put my arm up to shield my eyes from the light. All of a sudden i saw the vague outline of a woman with, what looked like a dog with her in the distance. Her left hand looked almost like it was dancing across its fur. I couldn't see much more than the outlines of both of them but I could see a glittering haze around them. It was beautiful and mesmerising. "Im sorry I had to come to you like this". There it was that voice again. "Who are you?" I replied as i tried to walk towards the woman in the distance. "I am Selina you are in grave danger but please believe me I am not here to hurt you. The danger is far away now but it will come for you again im afraid sweet child. Your world is about to change and I need you to at least try and accept what you will find out and see over the next weeks. Can you try and do that for me?" I was still walking towards them but getting no closer. It felt like we were miles apart but also very close to each other. "Why should I?"I shouted because I could feel myself getting frustrated at this whole situation now. I stopped and stared at the silhouette. "Because it will make everything make sense. You have come to this place not by accident but by my guidance. I have to go now but there will be a new friend joining you soon. Make sure you don't reject her." "No dont leave i need more than that please tell me what is happening" i scremed so loud im sure everyone would hear me but there was no one else here. "Go to the dinner all will reveal itself" she said before it all went black and then I was sat bolt upright as I woke to the new surroundings. I almost forgot where I was until I saw the trees out of the window. I was covered in sweat and shaking but I was more confused than before. After waking properly I walk into the bathroom and splash cold water on my face and look at myself in the mirror. I look like crap but at least im not stuck in my so called mothers plot anymore. I guess I should be thankful of that. As I look at myself in the mirror I take in my appearance. I hadn't really thought about it before but I dont really look like my mom and dad. They both have black hair and blue eyes and are not as tall as me. My eyes are green and almost turn gold around my pupil. I have blonde hair that is almost white. My mother is small at around 5ft2 and my father is 5ft10 im an inch taller than even him. I am very fair skinned and they always looked like they had a tan. How did it not occur to me before now? I'm feeling abit more settled so I get myself dressed in the clothes I brought with me. I search through my bag wondering what i even grabbed in the dark. Thankfully i had grabbed my blue skinny jeans and a strappy cami top in a beautiful mint green colour. I brush my hair that is waist length and leave it down. I have to wear it in a high bun when im working so its nice not having it tied up today. It's my birthday and I wont have them ruin another one. Even if they are not here right now I had a feeling I would definitely see them again.
